| What a fun way to discover Chicago's lake front and parks. The introductory video and training session are very well conducted and easy to understand even for foreign visitors. I took this tour with my 68 year old Dad from Germany and we had a blast. Our tour guides where energetic and fun to be with, always pointing out architectural gems and giving inside to lesser known humorous facts. We drove through little parks/ gardens I didn't know they've existed. The Segway Tour should be on on the Top 10 List of things to do in Chicago. |

| Being new travelers to Chicago, we didn't have our bearings on the layout or what to do when. This activity was awesome. Our guide was very knowledgeable, helpful and wanted the tour to fit what we wanted it to be. Not ever being on a Segway before, it was very easy to get the hang of and as the week progressed in Chicago, we wished for a Segway all the time...We had a blast!!! |

| I took my out of town visitors for a Segway tour of Chicago and it was a blast! It was a perfect combination of fun (the Segway is really easy to ride, but you feel like you've learned a new skill, and everyone smiles and waves as you go by), great sights (we covered a lot of ground down Michigan Ave, to the park at Buckingham Fountain, south along the lake to the Field Museum, and back to the edge of Millennium Park) and information (our guide was excellent and gave just the right amount of information about the history, architecture, famous people, and the sights we were seeing).
I would HIGHLY recommend this as an experience for both out of towners and Chicagoans! |

| My wife and I, along with my mother and stepfather took this tour and we had a blast. It was so much fun we would definitely do this tour again. The tour guides Jeff and Drew were fantastic and informative about the Chicago area. We had such a good time and we would strongly recommend this tour to people visiting Chicago. |

| The tour is a great way to see parts of Chicago that would normally be a much longer foot tour. The Segways are quick to learn and a lot of fun. Two hours and you see Buckingham fountain and the entire museum campus, with a great windy city skyline in the background at all times. |

| My wife and I throughly enjoyed our Segway tour. She was aprehensive at first but once on the Segway she took to it right away and was soon smiling from ear to ear. We have been to Grant Park many times but the view from the Segway is something special. I would highly reccomend this tour to everyone. |

| One word "AWESOME"! My friend from New Jersey was coming in for a few days and she wanted to see Chicago, so I went online to the Chicago Tourism site to see what we could do and this was one of the options. I read the information which was very informative and easy to understand. I made a reservation for Friday April 24th @ 1:30pm. We could not have asked for a better day, warm and sunny. Our guide was Will, a young gentleman who was absolutely adorable. We got a 15-20 minute lesson, which was very helpful and off we went. The tour we took was the museum campus' and it was great. Will was a very good guide. I am sorry to say that I do not remember the other guide's name but I know it was his brother so I apologize for not remembering his name. He was great as well. Once we were done with our tour we went back to the shop and I talked to the other gentleman and Dan to let him know what a great time we had. They are all great guys! I will definitely spread the word to everyone I know and come in contact with that this was the best experience that I have had in a while. I will be passing out the brochures that I was given to all my co-workers. Again, great experience, wonderful guides!!!! SEGWAY'S ROCK! |

| I signed me and my 14 year old son up for this experience at the last minute and it was one of the best experiences of our Chicago trip. The segway was great fun to ride and Mike our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable. It was a great way to see Chicago, save on our feet and have loads of fun! |

| I have lived in Chicago for 25 years, but saw and learned many new things. I was a little nervous at first about learning to ride the Segway, but it was very easy to figure out and very fun to ride. Also we loved Mike, our guide! |
